Is this code still maintained? #25
Description
There has not been any update recently. The current gdcParseMetadata() doesn't work with the latest metadata.json file format and the gdc-client could be updated.
While updating the gdc-client's version is mostly trivial (we could be better at choosing the right version according to python version detected)
Fixing gdcParseMetadata() is trickier if we want to keep the old json format support. There is no versioning in the metadata.json file, so we need to use an other mecanism to know which version we are dealing with. I haven't looked at it, but supporting this newer version could have an impact on the matrix gdcParseMetadata() returns. Before working on this, I'd like to know if this effort as a chance to get mainlined.
